🫱 How to Use Plug Spawn

  • Simply drill 5/16" holes 1" deep to hammer the plug spawn into. The holes should be drilled right before plugging them, and spaced about 4" apart.
  • Logs should be roughly 6 inches in diameter and four feet long. They need to be freshly cut, or at least cut within the past 20 days.
  • Avoid using logs with missing or split bark, try to find unpenetrated logs, except on the sides they were cut.

📚 Mushroom History

Known to European foragers for centuries, it gained its common name in the 1800s due to its chicken-like texture and taste. While traditionally wild-harvested, cultivation attempts began in the 1960s. Significant breakthroughs in cultivation occurred in the early 2000s, though it remains one of the more challenging species to grow commercially. Its popularity surged with the rise of meat alternatives in the 2010s.
